Posted on September 15, 2013 by chriscallahan

The University of Virginia got some help from one of its alumni when it kicked off a new tradition. Tina Fey (pictured) was the first speaker for a new series that began Saturday night. The 1992 UVA graduate says her interest in drama and the performing arts became more intense during her years on the Grounds. Fey has listed some creative people she admires, including comedian Chris Rock and Broadway composer Stephen Sondheim.
